And my own question that I cannot seem to find an answer to.
Can some unit like Reaver Jet bikes drag some form of deadly chains through enemy troops?
I could have SWORN that I saw that... but I cannot get the component list for a Reaver Jet bike, NOR can I find any evidence of them like I thought I had.

Eldar and Dark Eldar are only related through fluff. I don't think they're gonna get redone for quite a while, so just get the codex if you want.
They are weak, fast, and sneaky.
Check the rules on the Mandrakes. ********, they're good.

Apparantly it's advised, but if that goes boom, you lose points fast.
Also, don't use warriors for assualt. That's like using a chip to fight a flood.

Planning My Kabal:
Current Name Being Considered: Kabal Of The Darkest Star.
Suggestions On The Name?
Some Other Names Being Considered Are:
Dark Dragon Kabal
Kabal Of The Sanguine Thirst
Kabal Of The Emerald Heart
Kabal Of The Darkest Heart.
The Raging Beast Kabal
Kabal Of The Poisoned Blade/ The Poisoned Blade Kabal
Wild Heart Kabal
Kabal Of The Wild Heart
Kabal Of The Tyranus/Tyrranous Stars.
What Do You Think Of Those, And Also, Please Rate The Names, And Feel Welcome To Offer Similar Names.
The Colour Scheme, Is Dark/Forrest Green, With A Black InkWash.
The Fluff Is Being In Progress For The Archon, But The Story Currently, Is That They Are A New Kabal, And Attacking Lower Types Of Armies, Trying To Avoid Dark Eldar Getting Hurt( Dark Eldar In Their Own Kabal, Of Course), While Taking Prisoners From The Marines, Imperial Guard, Or Anybody Else, For That Matter.
An Interesting Side Detail, Is That Most In The Kabal Have A Sort Of Fondness For Animals, Especially Powerful, Strong Animals, And They Also Breed Some, To Coat Their Weapons With Venom, Or To Replicate The Effects That Some Other Attacks Do.
They Also Hire Themselves Out, As Mercenaries, Where A Condition Is That Aside From The Pay, They Also Get The Enemy Corpses, And Prisoners From The Battles They Fought.

I'm gonna be completely honest and tell you all the names sounds a little cliche to me. If that's okay with you, then ... well I don't know, maybe mix it up a little more? Kabal of the Poison(ed?) Tyrant? Raging Star? Bust out the thesaurus for a couple of these. The entries on poison are quite tasty.

OfWenzel Why Do They Seem Cliche? razz **
1980's B-Movie title cliché. They sound very...cereal-packet-gift.
Try to break off from "Kabal of the Bloody Sword" and "Kabal of the Darkened Soul" (yeah, I'm making these up but they do sound rather lame, don't you think?) and try to think of something a little more carnal and a little less "This sounds violent and bloody and ace."
Some of the best names are ones that make you think "Ah, that's pretty clever."
Ultramarines. Sounds crappy. "They're marines, but they're ultra-good." Now, I figured that until I discovered it was a very well-marketed name as well, because Ultramarine is actually a colour. So Ultramarine's Blue is the name of the colour and the colour of the army.
That sort of stuff must take a bit of thought.
Outside the box.
